Chaz and Jennifer had a long engagement, and Chaz previously explained to Piers Morgan on Piers Morgan Tonight why they "put things on hold a little bit."
"Not to make excuses, but we went through a lot. I transitioned. She went to grad school. Then, you know, we were making the film. And I wrote the book," he explained of his gender-reassignment surgery. "I feel like once this is over, we can sit down and plan a wedding."
